Stopped here for dinner while staying a couple of days in Galway. The place is nice and very near to the city night life, the atmosphere is classic and romantic. Low lights and ambient music. It’s a bit pricey but the menu is definitely offering some nice dish. We tried the mussels, with coconut and curry and I have to say I found them very tasty. We tried also one of the evening specials, wild peasants croquette that we really enjoyed as well. Raccomended if you find yourself in the area looking for something more.

What a delightful place off, just an extension off of quay street. Stopped in here for lunch after a recommendation from a local bartender. The ambience inside screams romantic date night, but still conservative enough for a power lunch meeting. Sat at the bar & ordered a local craft cider(aka, the adult version of apple juice, refreshing, crisp, & enough to get a 100 lb chick tipsy on an empty stomach) & their seafood chowder, buttery, perfect mixture of broth/chowder to seafood ratio. Stop in if you’re touristy’ing the area & a crave a good meal.

We picked Kirwan’s when we arrived in Galway last night at 20:30. I had the large Connemara mussels in lemon grass, coconut milk, and curry. I love mussels and I’ve had them many times in many places. The mussels here were among the very best. The sauce was spectacular.

hands down the best meal we experienced in all of ireland. extremely fresh, flavorful seafood with exceptional service and upscale but cozy atmosphere. we ordered: (starters) seafood stew shrimp with garlic herb butter sauce sautéed crab with clam sauce main entrees: lamb shank special linguini with clams and langoustine a must-try if in galway… avoid the tourist traps on the main street at all costs!

Down a side street next to all the fun night life, this seafood resto is a gem. The menu was interesting and i enjoyed that they had local food. They only serve beer or wine.

Down a little side street, an alley really, is this charming seafood specialist. We had some wonderful salmon and a delicious seafood tomato bisque. Service was knowledgeable, recommending good wine pairing for our lunches and steering us toward better and more seasonable selections. Check it out.
